^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^----- this is why you couldn't cd into /usr/src

from note 3 near the end of /usr/src/UPDATING:
[3] From the bootblocks, boot -s, and then do
fsck -p
mount -u /
mount -a
cd src
adjkerntz -i # if CMOS is wall time
Also, when doing a major release upgrade, it is required that
you boot into single user mode to do the installworld.
